Unanswered: Transparent Background for a subform?

Can you make the background of a subform transparent?

Why you ask?

Well...

I have a form with a tab sheet. You all know the one. At the top, it is R250 G250 B250 and at the bottom it is R240 G240 B240. Which means that if I try and match the colour, I get a very distinctive line which looks crap.

It would be easier to make the background transparent. But forms don't allow that as far as I know.

Not sure if this will work with tabs, but here is a link to some code that will give you transparent backgrounds on the sub-form. I have used the first set of code and it works beautifully, have not had a chance to try the other code that is supplied. http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.c...pid=702&page=1
